"We relentlessly foster partnerships with organizations that share the same advocacy and goal, because we believe that by combining our efforts, we are closer to co-creating a greener and more sustainable Philippine society," he added.

ACEN said in a statement the partnership was supported by the government’s Retail Competition and Open Access Programme which allows companies with a minimum demand of 500 kilowatts every month to choose their electricity supplier.
